Taiwan's TAITRONICS & AIoT Taiwan 2026 opened on the 20th at Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center, Hall 1.

The event is co-hosted by TAITRA and TEEMA and runs for three days from October 20 to 22.

This year's theme is "Edge Intelligence Now," with five exhibition areas: AI applications, next-generation connectivity, embedded systems, smart power and sustainable innovation.

"TAITRONICS & AIoT Taiwan 2026," an exhibition that showcases the latest trends in AI, IoT, and the electronics and communications sectors in one place, opened on the 20th in Taiwan. The event highlights the latest developments in AI, IoT, electronics and communications technologies in Taiwan.

The event is co-hosted by the Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA) and the Taiwan Electrical and Electronic Manufacturers' Association (TEEMA), and is being held for three days from October 20 to 22 at Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center, Hall 1. This is the 52nd TAITRONICS and the 9th AIoT Taiwan.

At the opening ceremony, Simon Wang, CEO of the Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA), said that AI is opening a new chapter. He explained that AI's role is not limited to showcasing technological capability, but also includes solving a wide range of problems on the industrial front lines.

Wang pointed to semiconductors and electronics as Taiwan's competitive strengths, describing the exhibition as a venue for unveiling related technologies such as AI applications and embedded systems. He framed the character of this year's show in connection with Taiwan's industrial strengths.

Wang said the value of the exhibition goes beyond introducing technologies, positioning it as a platform that creates market value and supports corporate growth. He expressed his commitment to supporting overseas buyers and said he wants to expand cooperation among industries. He also said he would continue to build global partnerships and support growth across the industrial ecosystem.

This year's theme is "Edge Intelligence Now." The exhibition reflects the shift in which AI is moving away from a cloud-centric model and spreading to real-world devices and industrial sites. It focuses on convergence technologies between AI and the electronics industry, with five major exhibition themes: AI applications, next-generation communications, embedded systems, smart power and sustainable innovation.

The organizers plan to unveil technologies and solutions covering the upstream, midstream and downstream segments of the electronics industry. They also said they aim to establish the event as a one-stop platform for AI applications in Asia.

TAITRONICS will feature optoelectronics and display technologies, electronic components and materials, measuring and testing instruments, green power, consumer products and automotive electronics, and industrial process and automation equipment as its main exhibition categories.

AIoT Taiwan will showcase Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), embedded systems, data center solutions, AI technologies and applications, cloud applications, next-generation communications and Big Bang Startups.

As AI technologies expand into industrial settings, the importance of edge computing, AIoT and data center infrastructure has grown.

Accordingly, edge computing, AIoT and data center infrastructure have emerged as key areas of this year's exhibition.

Beyond a simple product showcase, the exhibition has also prepared programs for business and technology exchange between companies. The official program includes buyer consultation sessions, a global AIoT forum, industry seminars, startup workshops, guided tours of the exhibition hall and new product presentations.

A forum will be held during the exhibition on the 21st. The forum theme is Computing Connected to Industrial Sites, A New Phase. Its English title is Devices·Infrastructure·Industries: Powering Enterprise AI.

The forum is organized around the computing and infrastructure build-out needed for companies to adopt AI. It will also cover the technology flow from electronic hardware to actual AI computing.

The morning session will examine the barriers companies face when entering AI computing. It will also address infrastructure competition.

The afternoon session will cover the path from electronic hardware to practical AI computing applications. The sessions will focus on the flow from hardware to real-world AI computing deployment.

Officials from STMicroelectronics, Advantech, Aethertek and Siemens will take part in the forum. Speakers in the afternoon session are affiliated with New Han (新漢) in Taiwan, Foxconn researchers, TECO and Chunghwa Telecom researchers.

The exhibition is being organized around Taiwan's electronics and ICT industrial base combined with AI, and it is intended to present a concentrated look at the technologies and business models that are spreading AI computing into real industrial settings. The exhibition has been designed to connect AI to existing industrial foundations.

In this process, the exhibition has strengthened programs for startups and technology companies. A "Big Bang Startups" exhibition area has been set up within AIoT Taiwan.

This exhibition area will feature deep-tech startup technologies that have completed technology validation and have the potential for mass production. The setup is designed to show both industrial application and commercialization trends.

Big Bang Startups Demo Day & Salon will also be operated. Big Bang Startups Demo Day & Salon serves to expand the points of contact among startups, companies and investors.

The official website identified Big Bang Startup Zone and Smart Technology Park Pavilion as new major visitor areas this year. The exhibition is strengthening its lineup for startups and technology companies by expanding dedicated spaces and programs.

TAITRONICS & AIoT Taiwan 2026 is presented as an event held amid the interconnection of AI semiconductors, servers, data centers, communications, embedded systems, power and cooling technologies that make up AI infrastructure. Through this, it is expected that one can see the direction of Taiwan's electronics industry as it expands into the AI era.

Based on this, the Taiwan External Trade Development Council plans to promote links between global buyers and suppliers and introduce technologies and solutions across Taiwan's ICT and electronics industries. It also plans to expand the exhibition's role as a major business platform for AI applications in Asia.

The event is being held at Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center, Hall 1, and the operating hours are 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on the 20th and 21st, and 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on the 22nd.
